Technical Difficulties, Please Stand By (+ another contest)

Due to PC issues beyond our control, The Gridiron Uniform Database has been unable to bring you a blog entry these past couple days.

The database and forum are still up and running, so you can still join in on the uniform discussions and debate like always.

Rest assured, these issues will soon be resolved and we'll be back Saturday with a full update, and on Sunday we'll be bringing you Tim Brulia's weekly column.

Monday, we will have another set of uniform matchups in the Best Uniform Of All-Time contest to vote on. If you haven't voted on this week's already, you can do so here.

In the meantime, between now and 8 PM Eastern Sunday, in a special contest thread in the forum, pick who you think will be #1 through 10 in NFL Network's Top 100 of 2011. Numbers #11-100 have already been unveiled. Further contest rules will be announced in the blog Saturday.

NOTE: For the most part all uniforms incorporated side stripes that were identical. However there are several instances in which the stripes have been mirror-images of each other or flat-out different. When different both the left and right sides are shown. For a listing of the mirror-images please check out the portion of “About Our Template” that relates to pants stripes.
